Learning Outcome:

in sentences;

arguments.
Importance
Using conditionals effectively in expressing
arguments is important because it enhances the
clarity, logical structure, and persuasiveness of
the argument. Conditionals allow for the explicit
articulation of hypothetical or causal
relationships, helping the audience understand
the connections between premises and
conclusions. They also enable the consideration
of various scenarios, making arguments more
nuanced and adaptable to different situations.
The use of conditionals in argumentation
improves communication, critical thinking, and
the ability to construct compelling and well-

Conditional
Verbs
are used to create conditional sentences, which
express hypothetical or unlikely situations.
Conditional verbs can be used in the past, present, or
future tense, and auxiliary verbs like can/could,
will/would and might are important in forming
conditions.

Conditional Sentence
A CONDITIONAL SENTENCE is a sentence that has an if –
clause which states a condition and another clause that
states what happens as a result of the condition. The form of
the verb in the if – clause depends on whether the condition
is present and impossible, future and possible, or past and
unreal (English Expressway III).

Conditionals in English grammar-
Sometimes we call them 'if clauses'.
They describe the result of something
that might happen (in the present or
future) or might have happened but
didn't (in the past). They are made using
different English verb tenses.
Two Parts of Conditional Sentences

1. The if-clause (which is


a condition)
● If it rains, we will cancel the trip. “If it rains” is the if-
clause (the condition),

2. The main clause (which


is the result)
● “we will cancel the trip” (then the result)

Types of Conditionals
1. The Zero Conditional
● is composed with two present simple verbs (one in the
if clause and one in the main clause). It is used when
the result will always happen.
If + present simple + present simple

● If water reaches 100 degrees, it boils.


● If I eat peanuts, I am sick.
● I feel good the next day if I go to bed
early.
● David is sick if he drinks.
Definition of an Argument 🚀
An argument is a set of declarative statements
in which one statement—the conclusion—is
supported by one or more premises (reasons).
The purpose is to justify, explain, or
persuade by showing why a conclusion follows
from supporting claims

Ex. “School uniforms improve focus.” .


- “When students exercise regularly, they
feel happier and more focused in
school.”
- “When kids move their bodies every day,
their physical health improves.”
- “When students have regular PE, they
become healthier, happier, and more
ready to learn.”
Types of Conditionals
2. The First Conditional
● has the present simple after if', then the future simple in
the other clause. It's used to talk about things which
might happen in the future.
If + present simple + will/won’t + verb (infinitive)

● If it rains, I won't go to the park.


● If I study today, I'll go to the party tonight.
● If I have enough money, I'll buy some new
shoes.
● She'll be late if the train is delayed.
3. The Second Conditional
● uses the past simple after if, then 'would' and the
infinitive
If + past simple + would + verb (infinitive)
-First, we can use it to talk about things in the future that
are probably not going to be true.
● If I met the Queen of England, I would say hello.
● She would travel all over the world if she were rich.

-Second, we can use it to talk about something in the


present which is impossible, because it's not true.
● If I had his number, I would call him.
● If I were you, I wouldn't go out with that man.
4. The Third Conditional
● is used with the past perfect after “if” and then 'would
have' and the past participle in the second part of the
sentence. It talks about the past. It's used to describe a
situation that didn't happen, and to imagine the result of
this situation.
If + past perfect + would + have + past participle
● If she had studied, she would have passed the
exam.
● If I hadn't eaten so much, I wouldn't have felt sick.
● If we had taken a taxi, we wouldn't have missed the
plane.
● She wouldn't have been tired if she had gone to bed
earlier.
Let’s try this!
Determine whether it is zero conditional, first
conditional, second conditional or third conditional.
Answer randomly.

1. If you smoke, you get yellow fingers.


2. If I had been born in a different country, I would have
learned to speak a different language
3. If I spoke perfect English, I would have a good job.
4. I won’t go if you don’t come with me.
5. He would have been happier if he had stayed at home.
Summary
Conditional sentences consist of two parts:
the if-clause (which is a condition) and
the main clause (which is a result).
There are four type types of conditionals namely the zero
conditional involves the present simple + present simple;
the first conditional uses the present simple + will / won’t
+ verb; the second conditional involves the past simple +
would + verb and the third conditional involves the past
perfect + would have + past participle.

In general, zero conditional refers to facts; first


conditional and second conditional refer to the
present or future. However second conditional sentences
suggest it is less probable or imaginary and lastly third
conditional refers to the past.
